Let her be arrogant

Chapter 44 Without him, you are nothing
  Song Shiyu felt guilty and did not stop her again. He only mentioned that he would ask her out next time.

The warm sunshine that had not been seen for a long time shone on the ends of the old branches that had just sprouted, and white-bellied sparrows flew over and danced.

Sheng Lanqing didn't want to take a car and walked along the long street for a long time. He chose a small shop with a transparent window and bought a bunch of candied haws in his hand. The shiny rock candies reflected the light in the sun.

While crossing the road, a Bentley stopped in front of her and rolled down the window.

Xie Si narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "Miss Sheng, I have something to tell you."

Sheng Lanqing didn't want to be led by him, so she directly rejected Xie Si's wish to get in the car and said simply: "I'll wait for you at the dessert shop over there. You can find a place to park by yourself."

She didn't wait to see Xie Si's expression. Thinking about it, she knew that he wanted to kill someone.

Even after she had walked a few meters, she could still feel the glare on her back.

The decoration inside the dessert shop is very internet-famous, with a variety of small ornaments suitable for taking photos, and a wall of sticky notes for guests to check in and sign.

"A coconut milk snowflake ice cream."

Sheng Lanqing checked the box and returned the dessert shop to the clerk.

When the small portion of coconut milk and snowflake ice came up, Sheng Lanqing hollowed out the top corner with oatmeal sprinkled on it, and then Xie Si came in with a dark face.

He became even more angry when he found out that Sheng Lanqing had not prepared anything for him.

No matter where he went, people rushed to welcome him. Mr. Xie had never received such a cold reception.

Xie Si suppressed his anger, called the waiter, and ordered: "A cup of American coffee."

The waiter was a young girl who had just arrived. She was frightened by Xie Si's cold eyes, but she had to bite the bullet and said, "Sorry, we don't have coffee in our store."

Sheng Lanqing saw it, smiled gently at her, and said comfortingly: "It's okay, he's out of his mind. You go and do your work first."

The waiter smiled gratefully and left quickly as if he had been granted amnesty.

She behaves in a measured and appropriate manner.

But looking at all this, Xie Si felt that she was extremely hypocritical.

"Miss Sheng, are you even reluctant to give me a glass of water?"

Sheng Lanqing suppressed her smile, took a small spoonful of snowflake ice, and ate it by herself before looking up at him.

"My respect is for Mr. Xie who was gentle and polite that day, not for you."

She was a little funny, looking at him like a child who didn't understand the world.

"Can't you stand being so rude?"

The girl in front of her was covered in thorns, but her eyebrows were filled with tenacity and stubbornness that refused to admit defeat.

But she doesn't hesitate to show her tenderness to the weak.

Obviously she herself didn't get much favor.

Xie Si was stunned, and suddenly caught a glimpse of another person through Sheng Lanqing's appearance.

He went to see a psychiatrist for this, and psychology explained such alternative emotions as a kind of compensation psychology, rather than love from the heart.

But he has been drowning in the sea of ​​misery for many years and knows the principle, but he is not willing to reach the desolate other shore.

I just want to share the happiness of others.

"Miss Sheng," Xie Si decided not to dwell on meaningless topics, "Why don't you explain the matter about your fiancée?"

"Who are you questioning me for?"

Sheng Lanqing asked him calmly.

"If it's Xi Yu, why don't you ask him?"

Obviously, Xi Yu would never let others help him solve his personal problems.

Such behavior can only be spontaneous and voluntary by Xie Si.

Just like last time, when he heard that Xi Yu had no plans to hold a wedding, he began to feel inexplicable indignation.

Xie Si was stunned for a moment, then became frightened and angry, and directly waved his hand to knock the snowflakes and ice on the table to the ground. "Sheng Lanqing! You are the one who did something wrong, why do you talk to me like this? What kind of face do you think you have, worthy of me being polite to you?"

"Without Xi Yu, you are nothing!"

Sheng Lanqing watched him calmly as he vented his anger and accepted the pointing and theatrical looks from the other customers in the store.

Snowflakes and ice were sprinkled on the tops of her white sheepskin high-heeled shoes, leaving marks that could not be wiped away no matter how hard they were rubbed.

She glanced at it casually and was too lazy to wipe it again. It was Xi Yu's money anyway.

If it were her own, Xie Si would have to pay her a new pair anyway.

"Are you done? Is it my turn to laugh at you?"

she asked calmly, showing no emotion at all.

"Did you also make such a fuss in front of Shen Qingtang? No wonder..."

Sheng Lanqing rolled her eyes, smiled, and said in a brisk tone: "She has always treated you like a child. She doesn't even know that you like her. What kind of man are you?"

It was Xie Si's turn to be stunned and asked instinctively: "How did you know?"

This is the deepest secret in his heart.

Others only knew that he had been unstable in the past few years. In the past two years, he had cultivated his character and behaved like a glorious gentleman.

Only he knew that it was because of Shen Qingtang's words: "Xie Si, you are always so generous, what will you do in the future?"

Except for Jiang Qingyan, who watched Shen Qingtang closely, Xi Yu was the only one who knew his details.

Of course Jiang Qingyan was not so kind and wanted to help him pierce the window paper.

Then all that's left is...

Xie Si pursed his lips tightly without saying a word, exuding the sadness of a child betrayed by a friend.

Sheng Lanqing saw that he actually didn't care much about the secret being leaked.

Instead, she was more concerned that Xi Yu would tell her this matter in an understatement.

It seemed that Xie Si was not as important as her beauty and trouble.

"Mr. Xie, if you are angry, you can come back with a small revenge."

Sheng Lanqing laughed, like roses swaying on the branches, bright, gentle and affectionate.

Xie Si stared at her closely, feeling that this was the poisonous snake in the Garden of Eden, hissing and spitting out scarlet letters, tempting him with ill intentions.

How could Xi Yu like such a poisonous woman?

Xie Si was very dissatisfied, but his curiosity was aroused by Sheng Lanqing.

"tell me the story."

He put on airs but pretended to be calm.

"Xi Yu told me your secret. You can also betray him once. This is only fair."

Sheng Lanqing leaned forward slightly, clasping her fingers lightly on the table, half-smiling.

Xie Si's eyes moved to her fingertips and then to her face. He always felt that this scene was somewhat familiar.

I seem to have seen it somewhere, who is it?
  Unable to remember it for a moment, he suppressed the thought for the time being and asked: "What do you want to know?"

"It's not that I want to know, but that you want revenge. Don't get the order wrong."

Sheng Lanqing smiled meaningfully, which made the last bit of strangeness in Xie Si's heart disappear.

"I just heard from Song Shiyu that Xi Yu is a non-marriage person. Please tell me whether this news is true or false."

She leaned back lazily, the fluff at the collar of the cheongsam touching her cheeks, showing a bit of lively cuteness.
